Ezequiel 35:13

13 Y os engrandecisteis contra mí con vuestra boca, y multiplicasteis contra mí vuestras palabras. Yo lo oí.

Ezequiel 35:13 Meaning and Commentary

Ezekiel 35:13

Thus with your mouth ye have boasted against me
Or, "magnified against me" ^F1; spoke great swelling words of vanity, or had a mouth opened to speak great things and blasphemy against God, as antichrist is said to do, ( Revelation 13:5 Revelation 13:6 ) , what is spoken against the Lord's people is taken by him as spoken against himself: and have multiplied your words against me;
not in prayer, by deprecations or supplications, as the word ^F2 used sometimes signifies; but in reproaches and calumnies, vilifying expressions and hard speeches, against his people, in great numbers; which is all one as if they were directed against him: I have heard them;
these the Lord takes notice of, and will call to an account for, either here or hereafter; see ( Jude 1:15 ) .

Ezequiel 35:13 In-Context

11 Por tanto, vivo yo, dice el Señor Jehová, yo haré conforme á tu ira, y conforme á tu celo con que procediste, á causa de tus enemistades con ellos: y seré conocido en ellos, cuando te juzgaré.

12 Y sabrás que yo Jehová he oído todas tus injurias que proferiste contra los montes de Israel, diciendo: Destruídos son, nos son dados á devorar.

13 Y os engrandecisteis contra mí con vuestra boca, y multiplicasteis contra mí vuestras palabras. Yo lo oí.

14 Así ha dicho el Señor Jehová: Alegrándose toda la tierra, yo te haré soledad.

15 Como te alegraste sobre la heredad de la casa de Israel, porque fué asolada, así te haré á ti: asolado será el monte de Seir, y toda Idumea, toda ella; y sabrán que yo soy Jehová.
